    My take on repainting protoform Optimus Prime.
    I primed it with Skull White (spray). Then painted red parts with Gore Red, blue parts with Regal Blue and grey parts with Boltgun Metal.
    I also did some little touchs with Sunburst Yellow.
    Then I washed with Black Ink and fixed the colors.
    I used dry brush with Enchanted Blue and Ice Blue, Red Blood and a mixture of this and Skull White and some Mithril Silver.
    I also used Mithril silver and then Testors Clear Blue for the glass effect.

    I was inspired by Jin Saotome's Classics Protoform OP, but mine is a bit different.

    looks very, very good. Really brings out the detail of those movie molds.
